Description:

An efficient, automated system for the collection of spatially variant environmental data has been designed and tested in a limnologic setting. he technique links differentially corrected global positions system data directly with that of a digital environmental sensor using a system fully compatible with geographic information system (GIS) and can be utilized for a plethora of applications requiring the simultaneous recording of precise (2-5m) global position and environmental response variables. imnologic application of the combination of GPS with an external sensor illustrated the efficacy of this technique.
